| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Pacing of this show feels good. We got more action this episode with some ground infantry operation. I think the episode highlights a bit of what's at stake with their operation and the difficulty of it.... The enemies aren't very shy to try getting info out of them though. A sad fact but true when it comes to war. I feel bad for the Princess tbh:  GG Water Strider :> |
 |
| NOW THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT!!!!!!!!! THAT WAS BADASS AS FUCK LOL I fucking LOVE the dialogue in the series and especially between Havia and Qwenthur....Man those two and their dynamic together is just so great Havia and Qwenthur FTW!!! Way to go for reminding these fools about the true art of war...Heck way to go to the Princess and Frolaytia as well (Her Kimono tho >//<)....Praises and rewards were all well deserved for these guys LMAO at how they got trolled in the end though xDDDD Best episode so far and slightly better than last week's |

| Another very strong episode. Lots of talking for sure, but it wasn't dull at any point and made the action seem like an even greater pay-off. It was impressive the way that Qwenthur dealt with the Object like that, and I ended up feeling sorry for them for having to end up on the battlefield again after that. Other than the CG fire on the destroyed Object (which looked awful), the only thing that bothers me is that the Object's self-destruct if they take enough damage. That seems like a ridiculous design flaw, and if it wasn't for that they'd have never destroyed the Object. I'm sure there's a good reason the Objects do that though. |
| So they manipulated the object's self-destruct mechanism to destroy it eh? Nice. Even nicer was Frolaytia's outfit at that party! :D Milinda was adorable too. Well boys you can't retire just yet. :D Good first arc, onto the second! |
That was quick thinking by Qwenthur and Havia. It's too bad they have to continue being on the battlefield but hey, that would have been the end, right? XD That is one lenient dress code if Frolaytia's kimono was appropriate. XD Milinda also looked cute in her dress. |
 "to the world you may be one person, but to one person you may be the world." -a magnet |
| Still unsure about this series, really not feeling it like i want to. |
| They where talking about POW laws while they are violating international laws themselves. According to international law a 14 year old soldier is a child soldier the use of child soldiers is a war crime. Armies are not allowed to recruit soldier under the age of 15 on top of that the must do everything they can so that soldiers under the age of 18 take part in hostilities. I wonder how anime is going to justify a war crime this time. In any case it doesn't look like they got a better position for the things they did. |
| Milinda is so cute <3 I just hope we'll see her being BA in action soon. Surprisingly it's Qwenthur and Havia's interactions that make this series for me. They're pretty fun. I guess the way they destroyed the Object made sense but the opponents were just so cliche with all their "Our God BLA BLA BLA BS" blabbering for minutes and not using the chance to just kill the main trio. Obvious Plot armor but w/e... Nxt up a sea arc? |
 |
| I actually enjoyed the episode this week. A lot more entertaining than the 1st 2.. paced out really nicely.. and its nice to see them pull through and get some exp together. Also nice to see them get commended and also deck out in formal wear. I seem to hear a lot of static noise whenever explosions take place in this series... which annoys me a little. Will continue on. |

| This show has plotholes so large, I could fly the fucking Death Star through them. Index guy should just go back to writing Index. |

At least the Death Star is a better thoughtout super weapon than fucking balls. And I agree, he is "better" at writing bad battle academy harem stuff than writing war stories. |
| Steel Ball Run anime when? |
Dragon_Slayer_X said: Ventris said: This show has plotholes so large, I could fly the fucking Death Star through them. Index guy should just go back to writing Index. What plotholes? Please give some legit ones. Like, for example, that the side our "heroes" fight for conveniently maintains regular forces, despite them being established as totally useless and thus only a drain of resources. Meanwhile, the bad guys don't even guard their camp "because they are confident". Or the fact that a supposedly highly advanced warmachine has no redundancies whatsoever for an obviously important system, no redundancies on its internal sensors and no failsafe to shut down in an emergency. My fucking car is better designed. |
|
| Wew, I loved it! |
| Blacker than a moonless night, hotter and more bitter than hell itself... that is coffee. My anime list My manga list |
| Nice episode.... Well done by Qwenthur... He deserves another perv moment with Milinda.... |
 |
| Makes you wonder why no one probably thought of doing this before they did. Like maybe seal teams sabotaging and infiltrating enemy parts and stuff to easily win wars. |
| It keeps getting better, looking forward to more. |
| This series is still pretty meh to me but I will admit this was a pretty decent episode. Hopefully the rest of the series can keep up this momentum. And lol, before havia and qwenthur got trolled at the end I thought the series was over. But then I remembered there's no way it would end after just 3 episodes. |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. MAL is literally just anime Twitter as its own website lol. |
| The' Objects' still look fecking awful but the series is improving |
| For a moment i thought i was watching Arslan Senki with his speech about his god. |

DatRandomDude said: For a moment i thought i was watching Arslan Senki with his speech about his god. Ayy this guy knows the feel and touch given by a good anime :3 ~~ So ..okay this episode was not that bad .. I loved it kinda.. ignoring the complete absence of any sound planning of war and throwing logic out of the bin this seems a good series. Well.. so in a nutshell this series is like hopping from one battlefield to other where our heroes bravely defeat them all.. |
 I don't know why people write that they are approachable persons, if you were you wouldn't be on MAL. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Extended families or lovers on MAL are a farce. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- |

| Mhm, great episode. For some reason it felt like i was watching the final episode. Looking forward for the next episode. |
| This was the best of the 3 episodes so far. Not bad I guess. I don't really feel excited watching it but maybe things will get more interesting. I get a strong "target audience: male only" feeling from this show though. I hope I'm not the only one who finds the OP song awful as hell. |
 |
| HAHAHA this is what i was waiting for, from Heavy Object. Nice Plan! :D |

Unfortunately the majority of animes focus more on male audience, should be indeed more balanced... |
| better than the last two episodes poor guys at the end |
| A Hideo Kojima Anime... METAL GEAR OBJECT! This episode was...so GOOD! It's a nice pacing, good action. One of the good anime of the season. also; The world's strongest weapon..destroyed by a single soldier. Big Boss approves this anime! |
 |
| So in the future people still use religion as an excuse for war. You would think it would be something about oil or water but still. |
Oh, pitiful shadow cloaked in darkness. Thy actions cause men pain and suffering. Thy hollow soul drowns in thy sins. How would you like to see what death is like? -Enma Ai |
| I liked everything about this episode. Strategies , planning , development, emergency gamble , Quenser stance against the enemy captain ... I loved it , all that does not like me at all, was Milinda dress , I mean, it was cute and but some.."picnic-like" would have worn something more formal. |
| I am Argentine, so is not very good my English, sorry for the many typing errors. |
| Still think this is a very meh series. Seems really convienient that it activated it's self destruct, The girl looked pretty cute in the dress :3 |
 |
| Thought this episode was rather good. Unsure about the series overall, but I do really feel that it has potential to become good. And damn, that kimono. ;))) <33 |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| Luckily I didn't drop this anime 'cause no it's getting good. Overall this arc started poorly, but delivers at the end, curious to see how the second arc will be. 4/5 |
 |
| Enjoyed this episode. Good game Water Strider, that takedown was impressive. That Frolaytia though, hhhnnngggg. |
  |
| Pretty good episode. To be honest i can understand their overconfidence, having a metal gear makes guards lazy. Also their achievement is probably the in-universe equivalent of disarming a nuclear bomb....mid-air.....with boxing gloves. On the other hand the fan service is really unnecessary and totally random. |
| wow, the plot device is real. hime-sama is soo annoying, why can't she kept where she was? ah, no wait if that doesn't happen there was no way they can show themselves their plan to destroy the object. The episode was decent though. |

| Awesome episode, Loved it but uhhhh,..........how did they survive that BIG ASS EXPLOSION?!!! |

Or the fact that a supposedly highly advanced warmachine has no redundancies whatsoever for an obviously important system, no redundancies on its internal sensors and no failsafe to shut down in an emergency. My fucking car is better designed. 1. This is an age where warfare such as what we IRL are used to LITERALLY became OBSOLETE. 2. Society has become wholeheartedly dependent on the use of Objects hence why its literally Object v Object and when one loses that's the end of the "war" and the consequences is that the losers lose their territory or whatever it is that's at stake 3. I dunno.....Considering what I said above, one would think that since said people CLEARLY has the superior Object which means that they clearly are superior in general and since they completely decimated our heroes' camp which was something that our heroes did not see coming (Which would then make you think that they would obviously be on the run and wouldn't even dare to fight back) one would think that they would act all high mighty about it as well as be so nonchalant....Considering how cocky these pricks were in episode 2 how is this even a surprise? 4. As I stated before and pretty much what was the point of this episode/the point of everything that Qwenthur preached in this episode, this a world where people have literally no use to be that militaristic especially when they JUST FUCKING WON A "WAR" and our heroes (Special and gifted guys at that mind you) decided to kick it old school like real soldiers and prove just how vulnerable this new art of war is 5. Somebody already explained the maintenance stuff so I won't go there...Also paying attention during episode 1 would have also helped with this as well -_- I swear people have to nitpick on every single damn thing -_- |
